Feast your ears on listener Rasheed Naz's “My Ordinary Hero” essay. All it takes is a little click on the “Play” button above! Hello everyone!

Write in about your “ordinary” heroes – the people in your community who are doing extraordinarily good work, quietly working to make the world a better place, in whatever way they can. As listener Pramod Maheshwari said: “Just as small drops of water can fill a pitcher, small drops of kindness can change the world.” I am still looking for your “This I Believe” essays, too. Tell us about the principles that guide your life … what you have found to be true from your very own personal experience.

Send your essays to thesoundkitchen@rfi.fr Or by postal mail, to: Susan Owensby RFI – The Sound Kitchen 80, rue Camille Desmoulins 92130 Issy-les-Moulineaux France I look forward to hearing from you soon! Here's Rashid Naz's essay: Heroes are not always found in stories or movies. Sometimes they live among us, quietly working to make our world a better place. My “ordinary” hero is a community leader in our town, someone who has taught me that real heroism comes from serving others with kindness and courage. Our community leader, Mr. Ahmed, is not rich or powerful, but he has a heart full of compassion. He organizes clean up drives, helps poor families, and encourages young people to stay in school. Whenever there is a problem - a sick neighbor, a broken road, or a family in need - he is the first to step forward. His actions remind us that small efforts can bring big changes. What I admire most about him is his humility. He never seeks fame or reward. When people thank him, he simply says, “We are all responsible for our community.” Those words inspire me. He believes that leadership means service, not authority, and he proves it every day through his actions. To many people, he might seem like an ordinary man. But to me, he is a true hero - a symbol of dedication, honesty, and hope. Because of him, I've learned that anyone can be a hero, not by wearing a cape, but by using their heart to make a difference. That is why my “ordinary” hero is our community leader Mr Ahmed, a man whose quiet strength and selfless service continue to inspire us all.     Be sure and tune in next week for our annual New Year's Resolutions program! Talk to you then!

https://www.worldmusiccollective.org/InstagramFacebook BioThe World Music Collective is a mixed-instrumentation chamber ensemble featuring internationally recognized performers, composers, and improvisers from Washington, D.C.'s vibrant music scene. Rooted in community and driven by adventurous composition, the group blends jazz, classical, Indian classical, and global traditions through dynamic improvisation. Their latest single, “Caravan,” reimagines Duke Ellington's jazz standard through a rich, multi-instrumental lens where textures shift fluidly and cultures intersect. Led by saxophonist and clarinetist Noah Getz, the six-member ensemble treats improvisation as musical conversation—embracing spontaneity, collaboration, and deep listening. More than a genre, “world music” for the collective reflects a living, communal sound shaped by diverse backgrounds and shared creative exploration.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

This week on The Sound Kitchen, there's a special Christmas programme from us to you.  Just click on the “Play” button above and enjoy! Hello everyone! Merry Christmas! This is Alberto Rios' poem, which you heard him read on the programme. Christmas on the Border, 1929 1929, the early days of the Great Depression. The desert air was biting, but the spirit of the season was alive. Despite hard times, the town of Nogales, Arizona, determined They would host a grand Christmas party For the children in the area—a celebration that would defy The gloom of the year, the headlines in the paper, and winter itself. In the heart of town, a towering Christmas tree stood, A pine in the desert. Its branches, they promised, would be adorned With over 3,000 gifts. 3,000. The thought at first was to illuminate the tree like at home, With candles, but it was already a little dry. Needles were beginning to contemplate jumping. A finger along a branch made them all fall off. People brought candles anyway. The church sent over Some used ones, too. The grocery store sent Some paper bags, which settled things. Everyone knew what to do. They filled the bags with sand from the fire station, Put the candles in them, making a big pool of lighted luminarias. From a distance the tree was floating in a lake of light— Fire so normally a terror in the desert, but here so close to miracle. For the tree itself, people brought garlands from home, garlands Made of everything, walnuts and small gourds and flowers, Chilies, too—the chilies themselves looking A little like flames. The townspeople strung them all over the beast— It kept getting bigger, after all, with each new addition, This curious donkey whose burden was joy. At the end, the final touch was tinsel, tinsel everywhere, more tinsel. Children from nearby communities were invited, and so were those From across the border, in Nogales, Sonora, a stone's throw away. But there was a problem. The border. As the festive day approached, it became painfully clear— The children in Nogales, Sonora, would not be able to cross over. They were, quite literally, on the wrong side of Christmas. Determined to find a solution, the people of Nogales, Arizona, Collaborated with Mexican authorities on the other side. In a gesture as generous as it was bold, as happy as it was cold: On Christmas Eve, 1929, For a few transcendent hours, The border moved. Officials shifted it north, past city hall, in this way bringing The Christmas tree within reach of children from both towns. On Christmas Day, thousands of children— American and Mexican, Indigenous and orphaned— Gathered around the tree, hands outstretched, Eyes wide, with shouting and singing both. Gifts were passed out, candy canes were licked, And for one day, there was no border. When the last present had been handed out, When the last child returned home, The border resumed its usual place, Separating the two towns once again. For those few hours, however, the line in the sand disappeared. The only thing that mattered was Christmas. Newspapers reported no incidents that day, nothing beyond The running of children, their pockets stuffed with candy and toys, Milling people on both sides, The music of so many peppermint candies being unwrapped. On that chilly December day, the people of Nogales Gathered and did what seemed impossible: However quietly regarding the outside world, They simply redrew the border. In doing so, they brought a little more warmth to the desert winter. On the border, on this day, they had a problem and they solved it.   Here's the music you heard on this week's programme: The traditional “We Wish You a Merry Christmas” sung by the Gracias Choir conducted by Eunsook Park, and “Santa Claus Llego A La Ciudad” by J.Fred Coots and Haven Gillespie, sung by Luis Miguel. Be sure and tune in next week, 27 December, for a “My Ordinary Hero” essay by your fellow listener Rasheed Naz.

In this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I reconnect with conductor and educator Aaron Kula, who shaped my summers in the Chautauqua Youth Orchestra at the Chautauqua Institution in New York in 1994 and 1995. We talk about what it means to trust young musicians with major repertoire, including the time we took on Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring, and what that experience taught me about preparation, accountability, and confidence. Aaron shares his philosophy for building ensemble culture: learning every student's name, holding individuals responsible while serving the collective, and making the rehearsal process both rigorous and engaging. We dig into how his multi-genre musical life, from classical training to folk and ethnic traditions, and his deep connection to Jewish music, shaped the way he hears rhythm, style, and culture inside the orchestra. Aaron also explains how conducting changes when moving from the concert stage to ballet, how tempo becomes a real-time collaboration with dancers, and why a conductor has to know when to lead, when to release, and when to stay out of the players' way. This conversation is equal parts music, mentorship, and reflection, and a reminder that the seeds teachers plant can continue to grow for decades. I'm grateful for the chance to say thank you, and for the lessons from those summers that still guide how I work with students and teams today.To learn more about Aaron, visit his website. Thank you for listening. If you have questions, feedback, or ideas for the show, please email me at brad@thebandwichtapes.com.

This week's quiz: On 8 November, I asked you a question about an article sent to us by RFI English correspondent Michael Sarpong Mfum, who reports for us from Ghana. His article, “Invasive water hyacinths choke wildlife and livelihoods in southern Ghana”, is about the water hyacinth, a free-floating aquatic plant native to the Amazon River basin in South America. It's also one of the world's most invasive species. The water hyacinth has found its way to Ghana, notably Lake Volta, a vast reservoir behind a hydroelectric dam that generates much of the country's power. Your question was: What are the consequences for Ghana's Eastern and Volta regions from this hyacinth invasion? What did Jewel Kudjawu, the director of the EPA's Intersectoral Network Department, warn about? The answer is, to quote Michael's article: “Jewel Kudjawu, director of the EPA's Intersectoral Network Department, warned that the weed's uncontrolled growth has dire consequences for aquatic life, fishing communities and hydropower production.” In addition to the quiz question, there was the bonus question: What was the best week of your life? Do you have a bonus question idea? Send it to us! The winners are: RFI Listeners Club member Radhakrishna Pillai from Kerala State, India.

Welcome to another special edition of our Buzz's Book Club week where Buzz shares top recommendations of new books on music, just in time for your holiday shopping. Join Buzz Knight on “Takin’ A Walk” for an extraordinary conversation with legendary music producer and author Joe Boyd, whose new book “And the Roots and Rhythm Remain: A Journey Through Global Music” chronicles decades of discovering and championing world music. From producing Pink Floyd’s first singles and Nick Drake’s timeless albums to founding Hannibal Records and bringing global artists to international audiences, Boyd’s career reads like a roadmap of modern music history. In this episode, Boyd takes us on a sonic journey across continents, sharing stories from his groundbreaking work with artists like Toumani Diabaté, Ali Farka Touré, and the Incredible String Band. The conversation explores how traditional music from Mali, Brazil, Bulgaria, and beyond has influenced contemporary sounds, and why these ancient roots and rhythms continue to resonate in today’s music landscape.

Near the beginning of the show, Melissa talks about women who, she says, were very involved in the campaigns – as event organizers, supporters, and mothers. Melissa enumerates the main concerns of the Ivorian women – and that was your question. What are the four main concerns the women of Côte d'Ivoire voiced during the presidential campaign? The answers are, as Melissa noted in her podcast, work, school for kids, childcare, and healthcare.

In this episode, I am honoured to host multi-award winning Scottish Trad fiddler Ryan Young about authenticity, excellence and how to keep going when people say you can't do it. We talk about the parallels of music, sport and dog sport in pursuing your passion and the inevitable obstacles one must overcome. Check out his links, his music, and his bio below.You can find Ryan at Website - www.ryanyoung.scot Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/RyanYoungFiddleRyan in concert - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bV2B8UDnhw Here's a bit about Ryan:Ryan Young brings new and exciting ideas to traditional Scottish music, receiving international praise for his spell-binding interpretations on the fiddle. His debut album (Ryan Young) was recorded with four time GRAMMY winner Jesse Lewis (who has worked with the likes of Bela Fleck and Yo Yo Ma) and launched at Feakle Traditional Music Festival in County Clare, accompanied by renowned guitarist, Dennis Cahill (Martin Hayes; The Gloaming). Ryan was nominated for Album Of the Year at the 2024 MG ALBA Scots Trad Awards for his album "Just A Second"; Live Act Of The Year at the 2023 Awards, and for Musician Of The Year at the 2022 Awards.Ryan brings new life to very old, often forgotten tunes by playing them in his own unique way. He sings through the fiddle and his playing is often described as poetry without words. Ryan's music is brimming with fresh melodic ideas, an uplifting rhythmic drive and a great depth of dynamics and precision. His sound is very distinctive and takes the listener on an emotional and adventurous journey in any performance. He has toured extensively across the UK, Europe, North America and Australia delighting audiences wherever he goes.Ryan holds both a first class honours and a Masters degree from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, was twice a finalist in the BBC Radio 2 Young Folk Awards, and twice a finalist in the prestigious BBC Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician of The Year. He was awarded ‘Up And Coming Artist Of The Year' at the Scots Trad Awards in 2017, nominated for the Horizon Award at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards 2018 and awarded Folking.com's Musician Of The Year title, also in 2018.Further MG Alba Scots Trad Music Awards nominations include Album Of the Year, and Folk Band Of The Year. Ryan Young was also the only UK artist selected to perform at the prestigious World Music conference, WOMEX, in 2019.“...a force of nature” ***** (5 STARS) The Scotsman “I have known Ryan for many years and have watched his steady progress from student to accomplished fiddle player. He has created his own unique way of playing and is finding great emotional depth in his native Scottish Music. Ryan Young is an up and coming musician who is gaining more and more well deserved recognition. I feel that he hasthe potential to make a very significant contribution to the Scottish tradition.” - Martin Hayes“In live performance, Young can appear possessed by his music. This may be a studio recording….but it captures Young in full, zestful flight, crisply accompanied by guitarist Craig Irving. Echoes of Irish mentor Martin Hayes - the swooping lilt and slow burn - can be heard…” ***** (5 STARS) The Scotsman“Ryan's music is inflected with a magical, lyrical quality. When he plays he radiates a hypnotic effect that is truly wonderful” - Duncan Chisholm'Being a fiddler myself I have heard many,...
